The apps can be OK, but also meeting in real life can be a better way to get across your personality. For example, the women at your kids' school events; or any hobbies you do, etc.

Just realize since both of you have kids, which will take top priority, then don't expect to meet that often -- people are busy.


My boss is an SVP at a F500 company, and he has no problem with dating in his early 50s. Most of the women he dates are in the late 20s or early 30s. His two adult kids are currently in college. He is currently engaged to a 28-year-old woman, no kids, who used to work in the finance department. He used his network to find her another job with another company. For men in their early 50s with $$$ and status, it is very easy in the dating game.


Most men in their 50s who already have kids won't want another set. I can't imagine running around after toddlers at that age -- it's physically taxing. Or showing up to their high school graduation whne you're in your 70s.


They don't want it but they agree to it because that's the price of the wife.

Plenty of good looking 40s women who are almost or are empty nesters and don’t want a second set of kids

He only needs a second set of kids if he’s an idiot who thinks a wetter P is worth it


That's right there is completely delusional. There are not that many, if any, good looking 40s women around. It is like a car with 250K+ mileage on it.


Just as many attractive women in their 40s as men.

Cleanly separate, look at women his own age, don't expect beach body or perfect 10. Women do not turn into crones when they turn 40, and they may not all have perfectly dewy skin, but neither does he. Be interesting and polite. He should do fine. If he just wants someone to f*** that's hot, then go bar crawling. But hopefully at his age he's looking for more of a life companion that suits him.

It is bleak for 50s men. I am a late 40s divorced woman with kids. I’ve been divorced for six years. I’m not interested in remarrying or cohabitating ever again. I have two children and an amicable coparenting relationship with their dad who is in his 50s. He even admitted to me that it’s way easier for me than it is for him he makes decent money. He’s more attractive than most people who are in their 50s, but he’s not interested in having a second family and he’s not interested in marriage.

When I date, I date men who are 15 to 20 years younger than me. I would not consider dating somebody my own age or older.

In my experience, most women, my age were divorced, who have their own income are not interested in dating or marrying men their age or older because they don’t need their money.

Just like at every other time in his life, it depends on how successful he is and how handsome he is.

This man is not even separated and is already concerned about his dating prospects. How about separating, completing the divorce process, doing some work and self-reflection to figure out why a 20-yr marriage failed, and making sure his kids are prioritized and secure in their relationship with him before bringing a new partner into all of this?

Jesus, these men cannot figure out how to function on their own for 5 minutes after leaving their wives. Immediately need the next girlfriend to mother them. It's pathetic.

if he looking for a woman close to age (which most people prefer) it's going to be tough. most of the good ones are taken. if he is looking for a younger woman it is more doable but he is not landing "top" women in that category.

Most? No, but there are a decent number of guys of a certain type (that age with $$$) who want a do-over family because they’re sure that whatever made them divorce and have a crappy relationship with their kids is entirely the fault of wife #1. Wife #2 is sure of that as well, because who wouldn’t love such a Good Guy. Obviously that evil harpy witch is to blame. Of course this time will be better. Until it’s not and he moves on to wife #3. He was never going to chase toddlers, he didn’t do it the first time, either. It only gets marginally harder after wife #2, but if there’s enough money, he’ll be just fine.

You think a hot, late 20s woman is going to be content to play stepmom and not have her own kids? Especially if her new husband has money and is way older?

Please get your head out of the sand.

100% false. A man would get his choice of a top younger woman if he is good looking, financially successful, and has interesting hobbies.

Yes, plenty of old guys in Beverly Hills with mid to late 20s women, and they are also stepmoms. Both of my brothers happen to be in that situation.

Most men don’t want it and that’s true. But some men don’t mind it.
Trump was 60 when he had Barron. No big deal.

NP. No “top” younger women want someone their own age. Only someone who is seriously flawed ends up with someone decades older.

Weird. I have several girlfriends in Beverly Hills. They all married late 40s men when in their mid to late 30s. The men are wealthy and on second marriage. A 10 years age gap is common, but 20s women marrying 50yo is more of exception. Are you sure the women were not sugaring as a main profession, before marrying your brothers ?

Sure, if you marry one of Epstein girls nothing else is a big deal
